C1000 - TCL script to be triggered on Syslog message

Hello,

I am new to scripting on Cisco switches, so I would need your help.

On C1000 I am trying to create a tcl script that will shutdown all ports on the switch, if it receives Root guard blocking port Syslog message. From what I understand, this switch does not support EEM, so only option is custom .tcl script.

I was able to create .tcl script that is stored on flash, which shutdown all ge interfaces, if triggered manually. I did not found a solution that will trigger the script on syslog event.

Syslog event that I want to trigger the script is: 000024: *Nov 29 17:04:43.945: %SPANTREE-2-ROOTGUARD_BLOCK: Root guard blocking port GigabitEthernet1/0/1 on VLAN0100.

 

If I try to add ::cisco::eem::event_register_syslog to the script, it will generate error ( invalid command name ) when triggering the script manually - saying that ::cisco::eem::event_register_syslog.

Thank you for your help!

Best regards,
Aleš

if the C1000 have event and action command then it support EEM 
EEM is easy than TcL 

I am not sure how to verify both of these actions, but in configuration mode, I do not have an option to create event manager applets, thats why I assume there is no EEM functionality on this switch.

Documentations for C1000 does not mention anything related to EEM/Event management:

That give us one way use Tcl. 
I will check and share with you the command need.
